This year, we came together as a community to spread joy, love, and hope to those who need it most. Our dedicated team, along with our amazing volunteers and partners, worked tirelessly to ensure that these children experienced the magic of Christmas. 🎥 Check out our recap video to witness the smiles, laughter, and memories created during these special moments. https://lnkd.in/eypT4CA6 Thank you to everyone who contributed their time, resources, and kindness to make this possible.

In 2018, we provided Aaliyah, a youth in foster care, with a Bag of Hope - a symbol of the care and resources we strive to offer. But our support didn't stop there. Aaliyah attended our Bridge Camp for 3 consecutive years, where she learned a crucial lesson: she wasn't alone. Aaliyah also looked forward to our annual Christmas events, creating cherished memories. When it came time for higher education, we were there again - providing a LOTC scholarship for her to attend Gaston College, where she is currently enrolled. Aaliyah's journey is a powerful example of how investing in foster youth can transform lives. By offering a network of support, resources, and opportunities, we can empower the next generation to overcome adversity and achieve their dreams. Aaliyah's story inspires us to continue making a lasting impact, one young person at a time. #FosterCareNonProfit #JoinUs
